"Or are you one of those people who think the American people are stupid?"I'm not speaking for MM but YES! I am one of those people.
He got rebuked by the ethics committee for his “bad judgement”.
PERIOD.
PERIOD AGAIN.
...how soon they forget.
The American public would not think that as being “exonerated”.
Or are you one of those people who think the American people are stupid?
Well it’s time to call it a night for me.
But I do, as expected and not that anybody cares, have some thoughts on the matter.
First, I can’t stand McCain and have no intention of voting for him.
But this story is so much hock tooey. Now if tomorrow brings more information that I’ll change my tune.
For sure the story insinuates that this Izeman woman, if I remember the name correctly, and McCain had an affair.
The McCain campaign doesn’t even whisper a denial to that insinuation and that factoid seems odd. I’m not much of a campaign person so maybe this is intentional. Don’t dignify the insinuation with a denial...sort of like “You don’t still beat your wife, do youj?”
On the other hand, maybe McCain DID have an affair with this woman. Although the NY Times doesn’t actually say such a thing, at least at this link.
Which brings me to...would McCain having an affair with this woman eight years ago matter at all? I frankly don’t know after Bill Clinton but since I intensely dislike this angry man it gives me more reason not to like him. Still, that’s an issue with conservative types and we already know what McCain thinks of conservatives. The liberals sure won’t care.
And if McCain DID have an affair with this woman, surely, surely, he knew it. Can something like this EVER be kept a secret in political campaigns nowadays. Sure McCain and his staff knows this was going to come out?
Finally, yeah, it sure is odd as all get out that the NY Slimes would endorse this guy all the while knowing about this. IF they knew about it as I’m still not at all clear what they knew about.
But that factoid makes no sense at all.
M.M. is practically an expert on Keating 5. Take his word.
"Or are you one of those people who think the American people are stupid?" "He got rebuked by the ethics committee for his “bad judgement”.Of course Bob Bennett, counsel assigned by the Democratic congress to investigate John McCain and his involvement in the Keating five concluded and reported to the Senate that John McCain had absolutely nothing to do with any wrongdoing and that he should be completely removed from the case. PERIOD
He even writes about it in his book 'In the Ring, Trials of a Washington Lawyer' where he says that for the first time in history the Senate did not take the advice of their own counsel and for simply political reasons. PERIOD
Just tonight on national TV he says that the one thing he learned in his eighteen month investigation of John McCain was that he was an honest man. PERIOD
Now, one can spin this how ever they like, but don't think for one single moment that you have more knowledge of the case than Bob Bennett does. DOUBLE PERIOD
